Bamboo and Environment
Bamboo can also be used in Environmental Restoration and Redevelopment projects including:
- Pollution: 1 hectare of bamboo absorbs 16 times more CO2 than a traditional forest.
- Fine Dust Filtration: Its leaves have filtering properties and act as a magnet, capturing and intercepting micro particles of dust and dust.
- Hydrogeological risk: Being an extremely rustic plant, bamboo is able to adapt to even the most difficult and risky terrain, as it has a root system that keeps the soil compact, curbing erosion by water and preventing landslides.
- Phytoremediation: Bamboo has the ability to absorb and transform contaminants making them less toxic and can be used for the remediation of contaminated water, soils, and sediments.
- Windbreak: Bamboo is a fast-growing, easily adaptable evergreen with a strong root system and very good flexibility and therefore has all the properties to be successfully used as a windbreak.
